Haha.
You need to get hold of your own racism stick if you think that was anything such. Reference to his playing style only you bell.

GOT - offended by everything ........... You know the rest

There's no need for that mate. I suggest you apologise right away and consider your responses and attitude in future.

I won't report you this time but I'll be keeping an eye on you.

Winter has come lads. Winter as come.

With regards to the fella who took ill - that was right by where I sit. Mate of mine asked one of the stewards involved after the final whistle and apparently he was doing OK at that point.

Thanks for the info mate, hopefully Everton give us a further update tomorrow and he's doing OK.

Anyone ever done this before?? I knew I wasn't going to see the game on tv nor would I have been able to get updates, so I went into airplane mode and watched the highlights without knowing the score on motd, had kids to put bed etc so knew I was going to be busy regardless, have to say it was some rush watching it, every attack you're half expecting a goal, even the motd order of games had me working out the permutations. Knew we were ahead of Leicester so was fearing a high score draw, probably best motd I've ever seen with the anticipation of the game coming up but obviously be hard to repeat. Quickest bottle of red I've ever drank for sure

good win and a nice £42 won on the correct score. that fecking xhaka goal cost me another £39. would have been a good weekend's betting

@chicoazul @toffeejack

Just saying....

ha forgot about this over the summer. Actually bet £3 on it at 14/1. If i remembered, i would have thanked you, but as it is, this was all due to my brilliant football konwledge

Thing is, no one is getting carried away, a'la "its our year", not in a million miles.

But we are starting to be a team that no one will want to play. Strong at the back, destructive and threatening in midfield, with pace on both wings, and enough creative quality to hurt teams.

And a constant goal threat.

Not too shabby, but give it another half dozen games and see where we sit.

feet definitely still firmly on the ground because we won't keep it up without strengthening in january, thankfully i feel we'll feel the need to spend a lot to vindicate the selling of stones for such a huge fee because that won't aid us next summer.

The reason why i state this is because of key new players gueye and bolasie going to african cup of nations. Both are a big factor in our good start. worry about that when the time comes though

i used to watch us like that in the pre-stream days...was dead-exciting not knowing any results, tho' even back then we'd often only get a few minute slot near the end.

The way footy in this league is that the so called lesser teams are playing compact not wanting to concede and keeping it tight so they need to be broken down with craft. The bigger teams will create more chances against us than the so called lesser teams but as we all know they can leave space and gaps for us to exploit. The bigger teams always go to win so with Del, Bolasie and Rom with there trickery and speed we will always have a chance.

koeman had very good success against the top teams at soton which makes me not worry about those games too much, i think we can get a couple of good away wins because of what you say above. But the main point is, the teams outside of what is now perceived as the top 7 (funnily discluding last season's champions) make up 26/38 games. If you win the vast majority of these that's going to give you a great season.

There's no such thing as a walkover in the prem, you see those idiots across the park will claim in their alternative universe that they've had a better start than us because theirs was harder on paper - but they've been raising their game for the bigger matches the last few years and come unstuck against the other 13 teams, as we've already seen with burnely. wait until they start winning these same games before i'll stop ignoring them.

Always turn off my phone if I can't follow the game live. Happily sit through 90 minutes not knowing the score. Wanted to know other scores but couldn't touch the app I use as it'd spoil our score. Weird feeling being off the grid during a match but so much better than knowing the outcome and skipping through it.
